For road/ circuit, you'd have to spend a lot more money to get anything better.

if it was 1990, i would've said yes. but in the past 20 years, much better products have been developed inside and outside of australia.

Agreed, but for the price, the $1000 koni and king setup on my NA8 is quite good for normal street use. Of course they are nowhere near the level of the MCA's on my rally car but then they are 1/5th the price too. Not to forget that Leda in Brendale have been playing with Koni's since the dark ages too (sorry Bruce).

I'm hearing very good things about the Yellowspeed racing coilovers from Mania, i would argue this is the best bang for your buck option these days. :idea:
